Home and Lovin It!

It is true what Dorthy (in the Wizard of Oz) said., " There's no place like home".  We just returned home after being gone for what seemed like a long time.  The trip was fast pace and we were always on a schedule, not mine I might add .    It is sooo good to be home, to reconnected with my family.  How much I do love them!  Also to spending some quality time with the Lord and just soak up His word.  Wow!  It is sooo good to be home! 

This week I will be having "Card Club".  It is so much fun!  Card club is a class I teach.  We usually make about four cards and I try to introduce a new technique.  This month  I will be teaching how to make suede flowers.  Here is a sneak peak.  I can't show you the cards because they are my Thanksgiving cards and someone out there might just be getting one in the mail soon.
       

Dishes on Display

I have a fetish for dishes!  Some people rescue animals, but I just have to rescue old dishes or mismatched dishes.  The next best thing is then to put them on display!  I love to decorate my china cabinet, changing it with the seasons.  Right now my cabinet is clothed in the glory of fall.  Colored leaves, a pumpkin or two, some turkeys and of course my rescued dishes.  I hope the pictures give you some new ideas for decorating and displaying your dishes.  Decorate even the outside of the cabinet.  How about a wreath on the door of the cabinet, and don't forget the top.  We have cathedral ceilings so I try to add some height to my cabinet.  The latest thing I did was to add a lamp and an old window frame, and a picture frame.   On the window frame I attached a wall hanging to the top. Have fun with it and explore some new ideas.      

Give Me Jesus

This song really speaks to me.  Of all that this world has to offer may my desire always be Jesus.  I hope you enjoy!
